Jian Chen had no idea what was happening to his body at all. Since he had lost total control over his body, he was completely unable to stop the absorption of the World Essence around him. Feeling his own body absorbing the World Essence at such a frightening speed, Jian Chen still maintained a determination of steel despite feeling slightly pressed for time. If his body continued to absorb the World Essence at this rate, it was unknown how much longer his body would be able to last before it exploded from the sudden increase of concentrated Qi. But what puzzled Jian Chen the most was that he had no idea how this happened to begin with. Why did his dantian suddenly start to absorb the World Essence out of the blue at such a remarkable speed? This left Jian Chen with no small amount of terror.
He knew in his heart that the World Essence around him was rapidly congregating and the area around him became like a storm as it flowed at a frantic speed. The gale of Qi roared and whistled throughout Kargath Academy as both leaves and loose rocks were sent flying into the air.
But when the World Essence entered Jian Chen’s dantian, it was as if he threw a rock into the ocean, as the World Essence assimilated into his body leaving no indication that it was there to begin with. For that reason, Jian Chen let out a sigh of relief. Although he didn’t know what had caused his dantian to go through such a dramatic change, he was glad that his body wouldn’t explode from the World Essence.
At the same time within the high central tower of Kargath Academy, the headmaster of the academy suddenly cried out in shock, “What’s happening? The World Essence is fluctuating in such a violent way!” As he spoke, the headmaster had already flew out of the window, leaving behind an after image. The moment he flew through the window, he soared into the sky at an extreme speed and immediately found himself at the dorm room of Jian Chen after a few seconds. He looked at the dorm with doubt and puzzlement as he continue to stare at the room.
Meanwhile, a streak of white light came blurring over and stopped a few hundred meters behind the headmaster. It was the vice headmaster, Bai En.
Even after the arrival of Bai En, another dozen people came flying over in rapid succession before coming to a stop behind Bai En to look at where the World Essence was congregating at.
They were all teachers of the academy with strength stronger than most, and so with the violent fluctuations of the World Essence, there would be no way at all for them to not notice.
Bai En looked at the amassed World Essence with amazement as he cried out in wonder, “Headmaster, what has happened here? Why has the World Essence gathered itself in this area?”
Although the headmaster’s face looked focused, his eyes were staring blankly as he replied, “Even I don’t know what has happened here, let’s go find out.”
With that, the headmaster plummeted down to the ground with Bai En following right behind him.
“The rest of you stay here, do not allow anyone else to come close.” He called out to the teachers.
All the teachers wanted to follow the headmaster to find out the answer to this mystery, but with the words of Bai En, the teachers stopped their initial momentum and returned to their original spots obediently. When it came to Bai En, no teacher dared to violate his commands.
Quickly, both the headmaster and Bai En arrived outside of the door to Jian Chen’s room, where the World Essence was inside.
As Bai En silently knocked onto the door, it suddenly smashed into pieces and the scene inside was projected towards the two.
Inside, they saw Jian Chen sitting crossed legged on his bed with his eyes closed as he continued to cultivate. The World Essence was still being absorbed into his dantian with such a terrifying speed that it made his body outline blurry as a fog concealed him slightly.
Seeing this phenomenon, both Bai En and the headmaster were speechless. They never would have thought that the World Essence being concentrated here was because of a single person’s cultivation. Not only that, but they were stunned by the amazing speed at which Jian Chen was absorbing the World Essence.
